    Ill-Suited for a Made-for-Television Format

    "Delaine" (Ashley Jones) is a young mother of two who has a husband who not only verbally abuses her but has also carried on an affair behind her back. Yet even though she is devastated to learn this news she continues to try to be the best wife and mother that she can even though her husband continues to treat her badly. Then one day she meets a man named "Graham" (Jeff Roop) who offers her support and seems to genuinely care about her as a person to the point that she eventually files for divorce from her husband. Unfortunately, not long afterward she discovers that Graham is also having an affair with another women and this totally demolishes all of her hopes and plans. Yet even then she continues to do the best that she can until one day she comes across a man on a dating website which stirs her passions and leads her into a world of sexual submissiveness which she has never experienced. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was a film that was clearly ill-suited for a made-for-television format largely because of the subject matter at hand. It wasn't erotic and it wasn't that romantic either. Additionally, the script was much too tame as well. In any case, I didn't especially care for this film and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Below average.

    Why Lifetime Successfully Sucks

    This movie is a perfect example why every film ever made or ever showcased on Lifetime is terrible. Although the movies are bad, it is the storyline and the demographic of the audience that makes every movie a success for Lifetime. The acting is mediocre, the production value is basic, but the theme of every movie hits a certain chord with its audience. Each movie connects with a group of women because of how the woman is depicted as a special victim. The Secret Sex Life of a Single Mom is perfect click bait from its title, box cover art and the storyline. The movie lacks nudity, sex, lust, romance and everything else a title like this should offer. The movie has more haters than likes but that does not matter. The Victim audience needs movies like this so they can reflect, not entertained.

    Ashley Jones is a great actress and she tries her best to make this movie work. Although the film has its moments, it has minutes of utter crap. Along with Jones, Scott Gibson is a surprising delight. When there is nothing else on tv, movies like this are a must watch if you are a stay-at-home wife / mother and or find the topics relatable. Hence, this is a perfect Lifetime movie. You have been warned!

    A nice experience

    Movie is interesting and thought-provoking. It was certainly worth my time. It's about a woman going through a new experience. I think it was a "drama" movie with some surprises(no mystery though).

    A learning experience

    The other reviewers are missing the point. It is not a porno. It is more if you take the time to really feel what the movie is showing. Taking a doormat person and teaching how they are in power. Showing that each person can be a strong person with some training and development. Listen to the message being given not looking for the sex. This movie is a teaching of a doormat, allowing men to control and make them feel lowly, and showing there is more. It is not about sex but becoming sexual. Opening the mind to see other options are available to those willing to open their minds to see the power available. it is a good movie for women and men looking for more in their lives. With other books out there about this lifestyle this movie has a good message if you hear the message given.

    Twisted

    Lifetime's "The Secret Life of a Single Mom", focuses on the wife in a broken family of four and plays out like a watered down version of "50 Shades of Grey". The husband is secondary and treated like a jerk even though he's the one paying all the bills before and after the divorce. The wife is treated like something of a put-upon heroine as she goes from one bed to another on hubby's dime, until she finds redemption and a paying job in the arms of a great guy/pervert who demeans her in ways her husband never would. Given that this is a Lifetime movie, it's target audience is women, but I think every guy contemplating marriage should watch it as a cautionary tale. Lest they too fall prey to a passive aggressive mooch who gives her best self to everyone but you
